Mathematicians have identified the main protagonist of Game of Thrones
Since in "Game of Thrones" the life of the characters, regardless of their importance, is fleeting, it is sometimes difficult to understand who is the protagonist of the series. Macalester College mathematicians solved the problem with a statistical analysis of George R.R.'s fantasy cycle. Martin. Entertainment Weekly reports this with reference to Math Horizons. For their research paper "Network of Thrones", mathematics professor Andrew J. Beveridge and senior student Jai Sheng have compiled a map that graphically depicts the complex relationship between characters in Martin's third novel "A Storm of Swords", which served as the basis for the third and fourth seasons of the HBO series "Game of Thrones". Mathematicians investigated the following factors in their work: In our scheme, three characters stand out: Tyrion, John and Sansa. Having received the position of Hand of the King, Tyrion found himself at the center of the political intrigue of the capital, - comment Beveridge and Sheng. – Our research suggests that Tyrion is the main protagonist of the book. " Of course, the Game of Thrones saga is far from over, and only with time it will become clear how fair the calculations of mathematicians are. The sixth season of Game of Thrones will premiere on April 24, 2016. In our scheme, three characters stand out: Tyrion, John and Sansa.
